China’s Third Plenum: A Plan for Renewed Reform?

Join CSIS for a discussion of one of the most anticipated meetings in China in recent years. Observers are looking to see whether China’s leadership will announce steps to effectively address a wide range of economic challenges, including slowing growth, a struggling real estate market, an ageing population, rising debt, and growing frictions with trading partners. CSIS China experts Jude Blanchette (Freeman Chair), Bonny Lin (China Power Project) and Scott Kennedy (Trustee Chair in Chinese Business and Economics) will be joined by Daniel H. Rosen (Rhodium Group) and Lingling Wei (Wall Street Journal). Together they will break down the politics of the meeting, developments in economic policy, and the implications for Chinese foreign policy and relations with the rest of the world.

This event is made possible through general support to CSIS.

Don't you worry about Chinese economy, worry more about your own problems.

The financial crisis is primarily the fault of the Federal Reserve, which gains indirectly from bank failures, bank-owned real estate, and even more affordable cars. Production cannot be printed, but printing credit is acceptable as long as it is printed. Is that right or wrong?

[waynegore]

No. A plan for forever collapsing.
LOL.

The CCP needs 17700 words to describe the achievements of the 3rd plenum? They are reaching new heights of mind-numbing pomposity. And this after having the plenum one year late. Says something about the fix they are in with the economic seizure.

Fundamental conclusions, and consideration ladies, and gentlemen. The music has indeed stopped regarding the Chinese economy; yet the term too big to fail does seem to have some import here.

Winners keep winning. Losers always talk about winners.

4:00 ok, according to this guest, he and his colleagues are trying to diagnose the "quality" of CPC's "diagnosis" about china's economy
so, a chaotic failing warmongering state, tries to present itself as if it can teach a successful and peaceful country how to run its economy
quality content.

Overall, the reforms are just increasing what they are doing. They see the problems but did not mention how to address it. So it's not transparent. Historically, ccp is very efficient and tenchnocrat. If the past is an indicator of it success, China economy should be fine. Likewise, if the past is indicator of china's stock market, then it's pretty much a zombie.

The funny thing about communist China is that they are always doing reforms. If China is doing so great, why are they always trying to change and reform? If one truly understands communism, reform is an inherent part of its system. There had never been a method of doing things correctly from day1. Everything is an experiment. Mao already tried so many experiments and every single one failed, one reform after another. It wasn’t until Deng that he decided that he had enough of communism that he reformed to use market economy (opposite of communism) and that helped put China forward to its prosperity. However communism was still part of its governing system that eventually broke the country to its economic knees. Without dropping communism, China will continue to linger on its knees. That’s the elephant in the room that no one wants to talk about.

The host is awesome but the speakers… ugh!

[kalipotmeng]

Dan has no idea about the Chinese economic model. Mr. Kennedy is better. Mr. Blanchette talks too long as usual. The two ladies also have no idea. What's so difficult to understand that what the market brings is not what the CCP wants. What brought the deindustrialization to the US? Yes, the market. These experts have questionable IQ.

This guy a joker lol in a good way hahaha
